Each month, I attend a unit meeting where we have the opportunity to trade samples of our work. The theme for the January trade was "NEW Product... using products from the Sell-a-bration! or the new Occasions Mini catalogs." I love the new Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Stack from the Occasions Mini. And since I don't often work with shades of orange (except for Halloween), I thought I should challenge myself to play with Pumpkin Pie card stock.

Here is a sample of my trade:

The January meeting included a stampin' project. (I love these!!!) Here is the box that I made:

In my next post, I will show you how this box became the inspiration for my trade for a card swap that I joined through Stampin' Connection (a wonderful site for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators where we can connect with other people who share the same passion for creating).

About Me

A life-long crafter and creater of many sorts... I crave creative outlets. And while at times I wonder if I might have too many projects that I would like to try, I have finally decided that life is just too short to not give it all a try! And while I am at it, why not embrace the every SAHM's montra: "Please share." I hope you enjoy, as I share my completed creations.
